A new agent-first app model puts coding agents directly inside regular software

This repost highlights a talk/post arguing for an agent-first interaction model: instead of making users do the work inside lists, galleries, and forms, products should let people say what they want and have the agent do it.

The quoted original proposes embedding so-called coding-agent harnesses inside regular apps—described as “one document, two hands.” The idea is that agentic apps should not be separate tools bolted on top of software, but a different interaction layer inside the software itself.
